Abstract: A refrigeration apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit switchable between a first operation of performing a refrigeration cycle in which a first compressor is stopped and a second compressor is driven and a second operation of performing a refrigeration cycle in which the first and second compressors and are driven. The refrigeration apparatus further includes a reduction mechanism configured to reduce a refrigerant flowing into the first compressor while a first condition is satisfied during the first operation. The first condition indicates that an internal pressure of the first compressor is lower than an evaporation pressure of an evaporator.

Abstract: A refrigerant circuit includes a first compressor, a second compressor, a heat-source-side heat exchanger, an expansion mechanism, and a use-side heat exchanger. The refrigerant circuit is capable of performing a single-stage compression operation in which one of the first compressor and the second compressor is driven and the other is stopped, and a two-stage compression operation in which both the first compressor and the second compressor are driven. The control unit controls the refrigerant circuit so that, of the single-stage compression operation and the two-stage compression operation, an operation with a higher compression efficiency is performed.

Abstract: A refrigeration cycle apparatus has a compressor disposed via a bottom member of a housing, a second elastic member, a base, and a first elastic member. A first electric component that drives a motor for the compressor and a second electric component that performs another control are fixed to the base and disposed. The base has an upper surface that contacts the first elastic member and a lower surface that contacts the second elastic member. The first electric component and the second electric component are fixed to the upper surface directly or indirectly via a substrate and/or an electric-component casing. Top portions of the first electric component and the second electric component are lower than a top portion of the compressor.
